Benefits of technology

The patent text is about a way to quickly figure out if a certain component is present or not on a suction nozzle. This can help in identifying the correct parts needed for a certain task.

Problems solved by technology

When the component is picked up in the component mounter, the suction nozzle sucks the component having a tilted posture or is not able to suck the component in some cases.

Embodiment Construction

[0022]Before an exemplary embodiment of the disclosure is described, a problem in the related art is briefly described. In a case where it is not possible to suck a component when the component is picked up, a corresponding suction nozzle is in a state of a vacuum leak and it is not preferable that the state is prolonged. In particular, in a case where one vacuum source is common to a plurality of suction nozzles, there is a concern that problems will arise in that a suction force of the suction nozzles that suck the component is decreased when the number of the suction nozzles in a state of the vacuum leak is decreased, and the component drops down. Incidentally, in order to prevent this phenomenon, there is a need to prepare an appropriate countermeasure of rapid determination of the presence or absence of the component on the suction nozzle and stopping the vacuum leak, or the like.

[0023]An object of the disclosure is to provide a component mounter in which it is possible to rapi...

Abstract

A component mounter includes a side imaging camera that is provided to be integral with the placing head having a plurality of suction nozzles, that moves relatively with respect to the plurality of suction nozzles, and thereby that images, from a side, peripheral regions of front ends of the plurality of suction nozzles, respectively, in order. Incidentally, a component presence / absence determiner (determiner) determines the presence or absence of a component sucked on the front end of the suction nozzle, based on primary image data obtained by the side imaging camera and the calculator calculates a thickness of the component sucked on the front end of the suction nozzle, based on secondary image data obtained by the side imaging camera.

Description

BACKGROUND1. Technical Field[0001]The present disclosure relates to a component mounter in which a suction nozzle picks up a component and mounts the component on a board.2. Description of the Related Art[0002]In the related art, a component mounter, in which a suction nozzle provided in a placing head picks up a component from a component supplier and places the component at a predetermined placement position on a board, is known. When the component is picked up in the component mounter, the suction nozzle sucks the component having a tilted posture or is not able to suck the component in some cases.[0003]Incidentally, a component recognition camera provided to be integral with the placing head may acquire a side image of the component sucked by the suction nozzle, and an upright or tilted state of a posture or the like or a thickness or the like of the sucked component may be determined through image recognition (for example, PTL 1). In addition, the presence or absence of a compo...
